Re: My room project

From the picture at least, the screen looks too high.

You'd be much better off with the middle of the screen being at around eye level if at all possible.

Re: My room project

Ahh I see, where would centre go then and lower front speakers to centre of tv still?

Thanks Jay.

Anyone else think that?

Edit: Plan 2 is with television lower and a bit of the floating wall chopped. Opinions please

Yeah exactly, i'd keep everything the same relative to position of the screen, just lower it all down so that you get the middle of the screen as close to eye level as you can.

Not only will that make it far more comfortable to watch it should sound a lot better too i'd have thought.
